[piano approximately arranged for guitar]
[verse] Dm Fmaj7/C When you look through the lights to the stage Ebmaj7/Bb You see the man of your dreams Eb/G Eb/C F You think his life's full parties and love but it's not what it seems
Dm Fmaj7/C If you could see in his room right now Ebmaj7/Bb You'd see how much love is showed Ebmaj7/G A D There's never really any romance on the road
His forehead seems cut in two by the crease in his brow He chews his nails as he fidgets just trying to settle on down The TV channels keep flippin', his adrenaline slowed There's never really any romance on the road, oh no
[chorus] Eb F Bb There's never romance on the road Eb/C Eb/G Ab Only frustration and overload Eb Cm He could fall in love, but he'd never know Ebmaj7 Ebmaj7/G For she's only riding and he's only hiding F Cm He's sure to ask, 'cause she won't say no F F Bb But there's never really any romance on the road
He was up in the bar straight-backed, did you see him before? Did he sign you his name, come with me, listen in at his door Hear himself so drunk calling home, can't remember the code You know, there's never really any romance on the road, oh no no no
[bridge] G He's held some beautiful girls in his arms, D Dsus2 D But now he clutches his bunk A Ab For all the good that they're doing him now he might as well be a monk Eb Eb/G Eb/C For his memories ain't worth a thing 'til he's old and he's gone G Gsus4 G A Asus4 A And his past never quite catches up, the show's moving on
[repeat verse] Did he say he kept a picture of a blonde-haired girl who'd been kind When he was last home his own daughter brought it into his mind Maybe closing bars and jets, paid some debts that he owed But there's never really any romance on the road
[repeat chorus] There's never romance on the road Only frustration and overload He's never learned a thing from the dust that blowed On stage for an hour on a laser beam tower But you know he slept while a neon glowed There's never really any romance on the road
There's never romance on the road Only frustration and overload He could fall in love, but he'd never know For she's only riding and he's only hiding He's sure to ask, but she won't say no There's never really any romance on the road
